NOT!!!.........The days of youth are wasted on the youth, I've heard it said. The days of our lives, as the Scriptures so eloquently put it are 70 years. I look at the youth of today in their teens to maybe thirty or so, and I have to say to myself, "Boy, I wouldn't wish my 20's and 30's on anybody." For me, they were years fraught with gnawing unanswerable questions. I was only begining to see what being an adult was like, and a late bloomer, at that.
Now, my days of Autumn are here in near full glory. I no longer find myself rushing and racing to the next light in life. It feels good to take it easy, and don't let life completely bowl you over. I love my 50's. I have never seen a more authentic self, the more time that I'm allowed to be here on the planet. I've been thru a few things so when life comes crashing down around me, I recognise that storms are gonna' come, but I've chased a few storms in my day as well!!! It feels good to have time be my friend for a change. I want to continue to learn to be more respectful of it. It's been wonderful being here. Thanks for watching.
